Hello.

I was working all night through in the lab, somewhat deviously, dull with fatigue and slightly delirious, when i slipped into bed and popped open my laptop. Searching for an aerodynamic bicycle, i somehow happened on your blog page, monkey..:) i must say that i feel connected with your language; simply eloquent, articulate, and captivating. The methane song in particular struck a resonance in my synapses. very cool. beautiful.

wow thank you for the early morning praises. good way to start my day but I must say I am intrigued by how an aerodynamic bicycle leads to my blog... hmmm must be the post about alternative transports eh? hmm hehe not much help there im sure.

i must say, i was impressed by the talk you gave at the TICE Eco camp on the 10th of May at SMU. I was also very inspired by how the camp was ran, and the Interest Group, knowned as Conservation IG, has a lot of involvement in recycling.

I must say, educating students, as well as the public to recycle can be hard, but if every individual tries to help, i am sure he/ she can influence his or her peers to do the same. Ever since i have joined Conservation IG, my family has started to recycle plastic bottles, cans, and tries to use Green Bags as much as possible, which i was really surprised.

I am a NUS undergraduate and happen to stumble on your blog while doing a research for my term paper for a module called natural heritage of singapore.

I am currently in need of a total 3 to 4 examples of endemic species that live in our primary and secondary forest. I have been searching the web but to no avail. Is it alright for you to just cite a few examples of endemic species in singapore and the forest the place that they can be found? Thank you very much.My email address is risingtothedawn@gmail.comBest Regards,Dawn

Greetings!

Welcome to the Midnight Monkey Monitor.

This weblog was created in 2003 and named as such due to my penchant for alliteration, a midnight predecessor and my moniker as the leafmonkey, or monkey to most. MMM chronicles my thoughts and reflections on subjects and news related to environmental issues as well as issues of cultural and natural heritage. Read more in About Me.

Since November 2007, most of the writings on this blog has been dedicated to the syndication of Daily Green Actions from my Leafmonkey Twitter account. However, as of 2008, I shall resolve to resume more original writings. Find out more about my projects.
